Chapter 413 Storms on Every Front

Michael asked, “Mom, what do you think Rosalie will say to Alice?”

Ruby didn’t look worried at all.

“Whatever old stories she wants to dig up have nothing to do with me,” Ruby said calmly. “She can say whatever she likes.”

Michael thought for a moment.

“But she runs the Previn Group.”

Ruby let out a cold laugh.

“So what? Sophie is still there.”

Stella was her biological daughter, yes, but Sophie was her daughter too.

The difference was that Stella had always received far less care. At home, she was hurt and ignored almost every day.

Anyone with even a little self–respect would find it very hard to forgive their parents.

Rosalie’s visit would definitely fail.

On top of that, Rosalie was not a patient woman.

Once she realized Stella had no intention of coming home, she would quickly shift her attention to Sophie.

“You’re a grown man,” Ruby said impatiently. “Don’t waste your energy on things like this. Since you have nothing better to do lately, why don’t you focus on solving your wedding problem?”

Michael’s face fell at once.

He really didn’t want to get married.

Yvette’s temper was better than before, but her family was already in decline.

If she married into the family, she would become a burden to the Nolans.

He truly didn’t want to create more trouble for Ruby.

At first, he had thought about calling off the engagement altogether.

But for reasons he couldn’t understand, his mother refused.

Michael was so stressed that he thought his head might explode.

Not wanting to continue this topic, he quickly changed the subject.

“Mom, what do you think about that situation online right now?”

Ruby raised an eyebrow and looked at him.

She felt pleased. Her son had finally grown sharper.

He now understood that the X incident was far more complicated than it looked on the surface.

In a good mood, she spoke more openly.

“Maria posted it online to target Alice and Riverview University.

“How Alice will respond, I don’t know,” Ruby continued. “But Riverview University won’t allow its reputation to be ruined. They’ll most likely choose a private settlement.”

Michael’s eyes lit up immediately.

“So in the end, Alice will be the only one left to face all those rumors?”

He paused, then corrected himself. “No, calling them rumors is too mild. This is cyberbullying.”

Ruby saw the situation clearly.

‘Alice is a hacker,” she said coolly. “If she can’t handle online attacks, that would be truly embarrassing.”

She added, “Still, tell the PR department to stay on alert. If the public opinion turns in the wrong direction, cut ties with Alice mmediately.

‘And one more thing,” Ruby said, her tone firm. “Go talk to Sandy. Tell her to get the core technical data from the tech department as soon as possible.”

Michael nodded and added, “Sandy is way too slow. Back then, Alice solved everything in one day. Sandy has been at it for a whole month and still hasn’t finished.”

Ruby gave him a cold look.

‘Fine, fine,” Michael said quickly. “I’ll check on Sandy now.”

He stood up helplessly.

At least this way, he wouldn’t have to work on spreadsheets anymore. That was a small relief.

What he didn’t know was that after he left, Ruby checked the spreadsheet he had edited. She was so angry she nearly had a spike n blood pressure.

After Rosalie was sent away, Alice’s mood stayed low.

Not long after, Stella called her, saying the company’s sea freight had been blocked.

The ones causing trouble were the Lawrences.

The Lawrences also operated shipping routes, but they had never had any business dealings with the Becks or with Alice’s company.

Their sudden attack clearly meant one thing: they thought Alice’s company was small and easy to bully, and they wanted to seize à shipping route for themselves.

It seemed like Alice would have to pay them a personal visit.

As soon as she hung up, another call came in, this time from Janice.

“Ms. Spencer,” Janice said urgently, her voice shaking. “Someone is hunting me down. They want the passwords I’m holding for th tech department.”

Alice’s expression changed instantly.

“Listen carefully,” Alice said fast. “Your life comes first. If they demand the passwords, give them. Stall them. I’m coming right now

Alice and Eric split up immediately.
